Hi,

I believe that the question asks you to fill in the gaps and that the options for the gaps are:

1) after "the" : ardent, dark, placid

Here the answer is "dark" since the other two describe mental states, not a place.

2) after "was": zealous, palpable, mocking

Here the correct answer is "palpable" - you could feel the fear!
